No on the kissing. Yes there are tests that can be done at one time but may require blood, swab samples and/or biopsies.

While there is a textbook possibility of passing chlamydia through kissing, the bacteria generally just does not live in the mouth, and it is uncommon to find someone with chlamydia in the mouth.
But yes, rare but possible.

There isn't a single test for all STDs... there are STDs like HPV for which there are no tests that look for all strains of the virus... and some STDs require blood while others look for the presence of the STD agent itself.. be it bacteria or parasite.

That being said, you can test for almost all through a series of tests. Not all tests may be available, and not all STDs can be accurately tested during the first bit of time after initial infection.

go to a doc and asked to get a std test but you have to ask for herpes and hiv to be added . and you cant get chlamydia from kissing but if you have it get it treated because it can cause damage and lower the risk of getting pregnant
